The Times contains no stale news or news foreign to the university. If you do not get your TIMES regularly, kill the business manager. James of the Delphos recommences his work at the University next Monday. The meetings of all the societies in the university are reported in full by the TIMES. The Times prefers to crowd out "ads," before locals, or news of any description. This is a newspaper. Several changes have been made in the several University boarding clubs, during the past few weeks. C. E. Harbaugh, of Erie, Kansas, a member of last year's Law class, spent Sunday with friends in the city. Prof's. Bailey and Blake are busy analyzing specimens of Kansas coals. They have up to date visited thirty-three coal mines. When Roberts Rules of Order fails, why not try the Marquis of Queensberry Rules? Probably they would have better effect. All delinquents in examination are requested to meet Prof. Marsh on Saturday, November 3. at 9 o'clock a. m., in room 25. A notice on the Bulletin board reads, "all members of the Telegraph Club are requested to see the Treasurer at earliest convenience." No. 5. An amateur sport, of the "prep persuasion," asks if it is wrong to bet on the coming election? It is certainly not wrong if he bets right. Is it? T. T. Hill, of Kansas City, a member of the executive board of the Y. M. C A., is spending a week with the University boys looking after the college work. The middle term begins on the seventh of November. The middle term examinations will take place on Monday and Tuesday and consequently midnight oil will be burned. The University is building some steps over the bluff south of Snow Hall for the benefit of the students in the Electrical Engineering department who have work at the engine house. Prof. Marsh presented a very interesting and instructive paper on "Keats and his poetry." at the Unity Club last Friday night, which was highly appreciated by the large audience. Sprague, a well known student of last year visited the University Saturday. Mr. Sprague was married Friday in Washington, Iowa, and was on his way to Texas to enter into business. The gallery of the opera house, Thursday night, when Langtry appeared, was well crowded with lonely students. That is right, boys, never be satisfied until you have reached the top. crater of an extinct volcano in Idaho Territory. The revival at the Lowmann Hill churcel continues with interest, and will probably last during all this week. Cancelor J. A. Lippincott, of the State University, preached Sunday morning.—State Journal. Col. Smeede, chief engineer on the Union Pacific railroad this week presented to the Natural History Department a collection of lava taken from the E. D. Eames is back at school once more. He will make Natural History a specialty. Eames is one of the jolly, good natured boys who is everybody's friend. The entire number of students join in welcoming him back again. The University is represented at the meeting of the Kansas Academy of Science at Leavenworth, by Profs. Snow, Sayre, Blake, Bailey, Mr. W. S. Franklin, Mr. Dyche and Mr. Murphy. V. L. Kellogg and several other students are also in attendance. The present week has been full of interesting events. The excursion to Kansas City yesterday attracted many students, the State Scientific Academy of Leavenworth called away several of the Professors and last but not least, the Oratorical Association has its charms for many. A certain professor of the University who by the way knows a good thing when he sees it, subscribed for the TIMES this week, and also ordered a copy sent regularly to his mother who lives in Massachusetts, saying "I want her to know what is going on here at the University." Owing to the necessary absence of a large number of the Faculty, in attendance upon the annual meeting of the State Science Association meeting at Leavenworth, the Faculty Hallow E'en party which was to have been held at Prof. J. H. Canfield's, has been postponed to the evening of Thursday. November Sth. The classical museum is open on Friday nights and anyone will be welcomed. Prof. Wilcox and Mr. Sterling endevor to "show up" the museum to the best advantage and will gladly receive visitors on that evening. Profs. Wilcox and Robinson have spared no pains in the selections for the museum and their labors are not in vain. Prof. Marsh has posted a notice on the bulletin board calling the attention of students to the "deferred examinations." The notice reads, "all students, who were admitted to the University on conditions, must appear to-morrow at 9 o'clock in room No. 9." When Prof. Marsh says to-morrow, he means to-morrow and "don't you forget it." Electrometer," 2d, "Physical aspect of the glacial Epoch, 3rd, Discussion of "Electro-Motive-force of Magnetization." The Professor is fast becoming a scientist of national reputation and it can be assured that K. S. U. is ably represented at Leavenworth. When Professors Blake and Bailey were in Osage county a couple of weeks ago, one of them was accosted at a small town by a band of "rag-muffins" and the inquiry was made if "he was goe'n to preach for us casionally." Each professor says that the "other fellow" was the victim. "When doctors (professors) disagree, who shall decide?" The delegates to the Lutheran Synod, who hately met at Lawrence, visited the University last Friday morning. They arrived in time to attend the devotional exercises, after which, they were shown through the buildings. The visitors were friends of the University, and will as they return to their homes, give to the institution the credit which it deserves. What is the matter with the K. S. U. orchestra this year? We have the material for a first class orchestra and K. S. U. should not be behind the other institutions of the State. There is nothing that pleases the "boarding house keepers" of Lawrence so much as to have the students "tooting" away on a horn all day long. Has the college spirit entirely left us? Miss Etta Hadley entertained a few o her friends last Friday evening in a progressive angling party. Every one present fished hard to win one of the handsome prizes which had been procured for the occasion. After the refreshments had been served all joined in dancing. Every one present had a very enjoyable time and all found Miss Hadley to be a royal entertainer. W. S. Franklin displays his knowledge of Science in three papers at the Kansas Academy of Science. 1st., "Liquid film Prof. Snow plays a prominent part at Leavenworth this week. He has prepared several papers for the occasion. The most important paper is on "Logan County Nickel Mines." Other papers are on the "Discovery and significance of stipules upon fossil leaves of the Dakota Rocks of Kansas;" a comparison of the records of the two anemometers of the State University; "Three new Kansas Birds"; and "Additions to the list of Kansas Lepidoptera." Within a few days the best editions of the works of Pope and Dryden making twenty-two vols in all, will be presented to the library. The works of Dryden will be placed in the library by that generous, thoughtful and well known friend of the University. Hon. Geo. R. Peck, of Topeka. The works of Pope come to the library through the kindness of Col. Rossington, of Topeka. Col. Rossington is a man of education, full of generous principles and has a desire to benefit his follows. The names of these gentlemen will always be intimately associated with the Kansas State University and their monuments will be a glorious one, a grand library for K. S. U. Prof. J. H. Canfield has posted on the bulletin board the proposal of the American Tariff League for prize essays for year 1889. The League offers to the under-graduate students of the senior classes of colleges and Universities of the United States, a series of prizes for approved essays on "What are Raw Materials?" "Would Free Raw Materials be Advantageous to the Labor and Industries of the United States?" Essays are not to exceed eight thousands words, to be signed by some other than the writer's name, and must be sent to the league on or before March 1st, 1889. The essay must be type written. The awards will be made on June 1st, 1889, as follows: For the best essay, $250; second $100; third best. $50. For the other essays of especial merit silver medals will be awarded. The city water works are a great benefit to the University. There is never enough "presure on," to furnish any water for Mt. Orread. The campus was all torn up a year ago in putting in pipes and the University promised beautiful grounds but at no time has there been enough water in the pipes to water the grass and the trees. Supt. Crocker has worked hard and faithfully to beautify the grounds but was powerless last summer to "battle with the scorching sun." The want of water is the only reason why the campus does not wear a "verdent hue." To-morrow night the funniest of all funny comedies will be presented at the opera house. Without much plot, it is intensely funny from first to last. Mr. Augustin Daly's "A Night Off" will make the sourest old men roll in their seat. You will smile; you will laugh; you will scream. You positively can't help it. Don't wear your Sunday clothes because you will burst the buttons off. Go prepared for the worst, for no one can live thru orch the play and not laugh. Take "A Night Off" and go. A Night of Mirth! Personal. Fannie Pickering is in the city visiting Friends. The half term quiz will soon be here. John Sullivan is to be Sunday.

Misses Ruth and Margarette Patterson of Ottawa have entered the University and will "cast their lot" with the subfreshman class.

Remember that all are invited to attend these meetings, and a more pleasant and profitable manner in which to spend Friday evening can scarcely be found. Pickings About the Chemistry Building. L. T. Smith is assisting Prof. Bailey in the examination of some "Kanzas Koals." The class in mineralogy visited Mr. Joseph Savage's place last Tuesday afternoon and viewed his collection of minerals. Prof. E. H. S. Bailey read papers at Leavenworth, on the "Composition of some of the coals of Kansas," and on "some of the constituents and Economic value of corn cobs." It is needless to say that the professor did credit to himself and the University. The building has been almost deserted for the past few days. Professors Bailey and Sayre are taking in the meeting of the Kansas Academy of Science at Leavenworth. Weida and Slosson are acting in the capacity of Professors in the absence of the regular professors. FOUND!
